    If you have the binary all ready, you could mimic this ancient gem that bundles pdftk binaries (for use with heroku):

    But I think it might be possible to leverage gem compile, maybe even with extensions for cross compiling.

    You'd need to specify the platform to match your binaries, and those as files (for extensions) or binaries (for executables you want added to path).

    AFAIK when a gem is compiled, a makefile or a rake-file is invoked - and can be made to do just about anything. Add some ruby in the gemspec - and it should be possible to distribute almost anything as a platform specific gem.
